This is a drawing of a dedication scene. It shows two figures seated outdoors, gesturing towards a large, inscribed panel. The figures wear elaborate clothing, with one in a feathered hat. The inscription on the panel dedicates to Sir Joshua Reynolds from J. H. Mortimer in 1778. The surrounding scenery includes tree trunks, foliage, and detailed textures and shading. The style is intricate and precise, resembling an 18th-century etching or engraving.
